Iris and the Weather

You can order the new Iris single "Unknown" from A Different Drum. It is supposed to be a very good single. To bad it doesn't have any b-sides. My copy should be in the mail soon. I am really looking forward to it. You can also pre-order the new album which is going to be released before the end of the year. It should really rock!

Raymond Feist is still going strong writing new material. The only thing is that its only being released in Europe at the moment. So don't hesitate to order from overseas. He has ...

Elizabeth Haydon

I just finished Destiny by Elizabeth Haydon. And have published a short review. A very good book and a fullfilling end to a very awsome series. Its nice to know that an author can finish a series in 3 books and make it more then satisfying.

Its been so long since I last read a good yarn. Maybe now I will find some time to deplete my Book to Read pile.

Linux P2P

So yesterday I fired up the trusty Limewire and it said there was an update available. So I went and downloaded the update and now it dies with a class not found exception.

Have fun!

Virtual Server - Installed

I love this album. Its amazing one of the best releases of 2002. Has some really great songs. DJ Ram said a v2 is in the works right now. Which is awsome because its another CD to look forward to.

Personally I like
Fallen - Chrissy is amazing... some really strong female vocals. Which you don't find to much of in Synthpop music these days.
Divide - I like the lyrics and Charlie has an awsome voice and the programming is different. I like the mix on this song overall.

"Don't let me fall
Fall into this darkness
Into this ...

C&E Another Minute

Well I recieved Another Minute in the mail on Friday. After listening to it all I can say is wow! Another amazing CD, but then of course I already knew the CD was gonna rock.

Farewell to Arms - Different, slower more melodic, very interesting music. Love the vocals here. The lyrics just sound so awsome.
Another Minute - Upbeat, dancy, synthpop at its best. Very cool song.
Echoing Green - Okay this song ...

De/Vision - Two

I also bought De/Vision "Two". Another interesting album. Love the vocals on here. Seems to have a few more ballads then the other synthpop I have been listening to recently. It is so hard to describe the music though.
